There are hundreds o! - fercnt caterpillars in Canada. and in order to have exipert opinion on the identity of the little pest-l. I sent specimens to Dr. F M. Cannon of the Entomological Laboratory. Charlottetown. I am grarteful to |Dr. Cannon for naming the in- sect and have leasuro in present- ing his reply. ce it is of general interest: “Those insects are young larvae of the Salt Marsh Moth.- Estlgmene acraea Drury. They are quite common this year especially on cabbage and turnip plants. Ari- other species of insect quite similar to this one. is the Zebra. caterpillar Caramica picta Harris. Thesc are also quite com- mon this season. The difference between them is that the Salt Marsh caterpillars are a. greyish color and covered with hair. while the Zebra caterpillars are black with yellow stripes and brown I mséors 0N rm: KALI l l herds, with practically no hairs present." | A5 On rcfcrrirg to my insect note-wringing a superior dolmmmt we book I find that I collected speci- ‘mens of the Salt Marsh, Fialse. .Errnine, or Acrea Moth. as it is warlously termed. early in my resi- ldence in this Province Here is- lthe description as l saw lv-"Mole k thorax and upper side of fore-wings white spotted black; hind wings and abdomen (except the "tail- end") deep ochre yellow, the fann- icr with a few black spots near the ihind margin. the abdomen with a ,i'ow of six black spots on the up- lper side. two rows on thc sides and ]one underneath.

It has [reason to be. for the latest analysis shows that ii has a protein per- centage of 3.9 against the ilvliitc potatos 2.0; zii fat .6 per cent to} the potato's .1; and in calcium (so essential to bone) .181 per cent against the potatos 013. In ad- dition kale has an edge in Vita- mins A. B. and C, roughly as 3 to 2 over the tuber. However, potatoes have 385 cal-l ogies per lb. while kale has but 2 5. As to cooking. the Scots madel "Kali Brose" by boiling the leaves along with ox-heels. As a side dish kale was boiled alone. drain-l ed. and sent to table with sauce or melted butter. Another way‘ was to parboil the kale. drain. and complete the boiling in gravy.

It cannot be done. The scientists of all important countries have been studying the structure of the atom for the las: twenty years and their writings are available to all who are inter- ested. For the last l0 or l2 years their thought has been to “break" the atom and hamese its force for use. The Germans nearly suc- ceeded. the Anglo-Saxons did, and the Russians. secretive as they are. Drflbibly know as much about zt as anybody, for they are clever scientists as well as brave war- riors.

Captain Charles Jokstadt brought. his ship. the lin- er President Munroe. to anchor at the port of New York. He des- cribed as "fantastic" the condi- tions off Newfoundland where his vessel was delayed 4 1-2 hours by the Gulf Stream. He was amaz- cd to find it 50 miles further norlli and the temperature of the Lab- rador current was up to '75 and B0 degrees. instead of the usual 48 or 50. Dr. James Kimball. of thc U . Weather Bureau. suspected that. this had something to do with the hot weather from which York was then suffering. We had, I note. a temperature in March 5 degrees above the aver- age of the past 37 years. and now we have a persistent drought. 1t would be interesting to 19am if the Gulf Stream has again mm. ed northward?
